Mastodon is one of multiple softwares that compose the Fediverse ("Federeated Universe"). Some of the most popular softwares include Misskey, Plemora, PeerTube, and Pixelfed, among others.
As each instance (server) integrates using ActivityPub, any one of these softwares can be used to follow users or reply to posts(/toots/notes) on any instance.
Most people seem to not realize that Mastodon is different from the "umbrella term" Fediverse. :)

Travis CI is slow, builds are first queued up forever and then the builds
themselves are slow, too.
GitHub Actions run pretty much immediately and are fast. Also separate jobs run
at the same time unlike on Travis CI.
Using sudo with `echo ... | tee /path/to/file` doesn't make sense, as the command requiring the superuser privileges is the `tee` command and not the echo.
